Goldilocks is the well-known fairy tale character from "Goldilocks
and the Three Bears" (as first recorded by Robert Southey), who went into
the house of the Three Bears, ate their porridge, sat in their chairs, and
slept in their beds. In The Land of Stories series, she is a wanted fugitive
(the Three Bears pressed charges against her for breaking & entering).
Appearance and Personality
"She was young and beautiful. Her eyes were big and blue, and her
hair was half up and flowed in long, golden curls. She wore a long, maroon knit
coat with black leggings and very tall boots." In The Wishing Spell,
Goldilocks is described as a very good swordswoman. She is on the run for the
law, accompanied by her horse Porridge. To communicate with her lover, Jack,
she trains white doves. In The Enchantress Returns, Jack and Goldilocks tell stories
about the times they rescued each other; Goldilocks once saved Jack from
soldiers after he had stolen a bread from a bakery, and Jack saved her from
Ogres in return.
She has been afraid of bears ever since the incident with the Three
Bears. When she and Jack are pardoned for their crimes in The Enchantress
Returns, rather than rejoice, they look very unhappy about it. When no one is
looking, they steal Queen Red's necklace so they can be "on the run"
together again.
Little Goldilocks
Goldilocks And The Three Bears in 'A Treasury of Classic Fairytales'.
When she marries Jack, she does so in typical "Goldie" fashion: her
dress is stolen from Queen Red, her bouquet is her sword with flowers wrapped
around it, and her horse is her maid of honor. In Beyond the Kingdoms, Goldie
is several months pregnant and her hormones are wreaking havoc on her emotions,
but she doesn't let the pregnancy stop her from helping Alex and Conner.
